![](https://i.imgur.com/F7zqMyR.jpg)


The break at the upper part of the femur is known as a **[hip fracture](https://biiut.com/read-blog/8909_a-comprehensive-guide-on-hip-fractures.html)**. The hip joint is a type of “ball and socket” joint that is formed by the head of the femur and the acetabulum of the pelvis. The hip fracture results in the dislocation of the joint, and that can be seen as the deformity around the hip. It is a painful condition that significantly affects the daily activities of the person. Femoral neck fractures and intertrochanteric region fractures are two common types of hip fractures that are most reported.
